“This is an example of a common foul, and it is not a Transition Take Foul. The defensive player, Tyus Jones, makes a legitimate attempt to steal the ball from the dribbler, Desmond Bane, and in doing so, he makes illegal contact. This is a common foul. For a Transition Take Foul to be called in this type of situation, the defender must be deemed to have NOT made a legitimate attempt to play defense.”
